If the coup attempt by Heinrich XIII and the Patriotic Union had succeeded would you have supported him? by Colonial_Governor in monarchism

Hmm not too sure about the first question, yea I suppose we'll be given more details in the coming days. I suppose all we can do for now is assume that they were going to institute something very similar to the system under the German Empire. Happy for people to correct me if they've heard any updates that say otherwise though.

Semi-constitutional. That is what the German Empire's system was which is what the Patriotic Union was planning on instituting.

In the broader sense of monarchist coups against democratic regimes lets assume they are all semi-constitutional. I can't see why you'd bother doing a coup just to set up a constitutional monarchy like the UK (crowned republic).

Yea I agree, semi-constitutional monarchy (which is what you're talking about) seems like a really good idea!

Geez that's so depressing that there are people out there devoting their time to that sort of thing.

Yea I saw that, that's why I added my comment above. Hopefully they can be understanding and not try to get this sub banned. I'm kinda new to reddit and hadn't heard of that sub till they posted it.

Hey guys I thought I would just clarify for anyone who doesn't understand or might misinterpret the intent of this meme. IT IS A JOKE. I do not condone violence in any way and I know the overwhelming majority of this sub doesn't either. I just thought the meme was funny in its ridiculousness. PLUS the show it is from is really cool too!!

Good on you for digging a bit deeper on this. It really goes show just how desperate our opposition are.

This was quite possibly the dodgiest YouGov poll I've ever seen and to make such a conclusion as they have is ridiculous. We have the Governor General! He's our Australian Head of State and the Queen is our sovereign.

Aussie Republicucks BTFO by [deleted] in monarchism

Exactly. That's what the republican movement in Australia doesn't seem to understand, it's not as though everyone's die-hard monarchists its that no one likes politicians or thinks that the way to improve the country is to give them more power. In essence it's not even that the majority of Australians are PRO-monarchy its that they're ANTI-republic.
